Detroit Pistons NBA Logo Redesign 

Post#1 » by Kilo » Tue Jun 25, 2013 2:52 am

This is a bit old, but I didn't see it before. I sorta dig the look -

I like the art deco look, and like the hood ornament Pegasus idea as it ties in the horse head/horse power and also the winged aspect also present in the Detroit Red Wing logo.

Hate it. Reminds me of the Pelicans logo, which has too much going on.

the pegasus should be front on and symmetrical to match the font.
Either way i'm not a fan.

i think a modern take would be more appropriate if they do look to change the logo. This represents the past glories of Detroit, where the city needs to look to the future IMO

I like it, but needs more teal. *duck*

Somehow I love the current logo much, much more than this ...

We need a logo redesign but the one in the OP looks crap IMO. There was a thread from a few weeks ago with some good options.

We need flatter and minimalism. That's a good start, but the Pegasus thing looks weird.

It's a shame this logo wasn't the primary logo, or the logo in the middle of the court. Less is more and this is the best logo the team's ever had.


the design of the wording should be changed too.

Eh, kinda indifferent to the logo design, but I prefer brighter colors to the dark red/blue.
